Default TURBO KIT QUESTION

Ok, one of my mates is going to turbo his z6. We have been looking at the options available as reguarding piecing it together or buying a kit, as we are in the UK neither are cheap options (infact its almost double the price). So the turbo kit seems to be the cheapest option as it will be bought from the states and only incur one shipping charge as opposed to many for seperate items.
We have decided to go with the Greddy kit as its cheap enough and good quality.
As of now the cheapest place I have found is nopi online http://www.nopionline.com/nopistore/...0HONDA%20Civic It will cost a further $200 shipping.
My question is does anybody know anywhere else online that might be cheaper?, I did see one for around $1300 but cant remember where. Thanks guys.

I will check ebay, its just hard not to get ripped off with shipping costs buying from the states. Ebay is well known for it. Some sellers wont ship outside th US too though.

adding to this kit would be......

1. FMIC (the pipe just has to be cut and slotted in?!)
2. injectors (iv heard that the stock injectors are ok for 75hp each and wouldn't need to be uprated unless you go over 250hp?!)
3. A good tune from a company local to us via uberdata or chrome or likewise companies??
4. External wastegate (don't know if it's needed or not?)
5. With the tune i want to run around or as close to 200whp as possible (8-9psi?)

Opinions on all these points and questions please guys,[sm=feedback.gif] thanks

i wouldnt push the stock injectors past anything than what they arnt ment for, i would highly recommend some rc 270cc or rc 310cc injectors, better safe than sorry
